Apparently, it’s all about planned economies: former Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm is for ‘em. “We operate as though we are not in a global economy,” says Granholm. “In theory, free markets and laissez faire make perfect sense, but in practice, our competitors are eating us for lunch.” (pause) Remember, this was supposed to be one of the Democrats’ smart ones. One of the people that | Read More »

Jon Henke reports on it. I suppose that we won’t be seeing “Dissent Is The Highest Form Of Patriotism” stickers anymore. Honestly, can the hypocrisy of Granholm, Dingell and others be any more appalling? As the so-called “Dean of the House,” Dingell has championed a failed auto industry for the whole of his nearly five decades on Capitol Hill. Every time the domestic automobile manufacturers | Read More »

Sometimes the best way to prove somebody is a moron, is to get out of their way, let them speak and watch them prove the point on their own. Jennifer Granholm does this masterfully. In an article from the Briefing Room, Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm, called senators that voted against the bailout of the Big Three automakers un-American.

Someone sent me an email with some pictures of Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm. Except they are from years ago and one is largely of her nude. The note says she was trying to get a talent agent way back when and these were the pictures she used. The face appears the same for the most part, though more bleach in the hair and younger.
